ABOUT

Just looking to hook up with some local musicians and have some fun, with the possibility of occasional gigs. Like-minded old farts like myself please...none of you crazy kids and your grungy death punky metal music. Have recently been turned onto irish music and it would be great to jam with some fiddle players, flute players, bagpipes, etc. I can do backup vocals on a limited range of songs...I could really use a strong vocalist. The ideal scenario for me would be a 2-3 piece irish folk band playing smaller, casual venues with me on guitar, and one or two others on vocals/fiddle/guitar/percussion/etc.
